Gas mileage isn't everythingOIIIIIIIOLack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.Why pretend there are no stupid questions? Actually, There are many stupid questions: "Should I drink this bleach?" Is just one example.
Having said that, Just because it's a stupid question doesn't mean that it shouldn't be asked. It's better to know.A warm beer is better than a cold beer. Because nothing is better than a cold beer, and a warm beer is better than nothing.

LOL...LH, I just posted that link in another thread. It's a very good article.

I've had it in my favorites for awhile but ran across it today when cleaning things out.

I have never believed ick is "always" in your tank. Frankly that claim never made any sense. If it was always in your tank, your fish would always have ick since it can not survive without a food source.

I found this one a fair while ago, and I post it up on peoples threads if they have an outbreak of ich. All the info comes from Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences Dept, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida. Department of Zoology, University of Queensland, Australia.

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. ~Chuck Clark
